November 17-21

Tests from Friday will be passed out on Monday.  If you scored below a 70% and would like to improve your grade you are welcome to come in during lunch on Monday or Tuesday only.  You will need to ask for a note on your own and have your test with you when you come.

The 4th Reading assignment is due on Friday.  You must read a newspaper or magazine article and complete the written response.  I will be grading assignment folders over break.  NO LATE ASSIGNMENTS will be allowed.

The week will be working through The Color of My Words in our reading textbook. We will review previously learned skills work on summarizing text.

***Parent Note: We could really use boxes of pencils and glue sticks in class.  If you are able to help with one or both of those it would be appreciated very much! ***
